Ceramic Coin Banks Identification & Value Guide

Ceramic Coin Banks Identification & Value Guide

It is not necessary to read or own this book to enjoy collecting and appreciating ceramic coin banks. One of the most stalwart ceramic bank collectors, Ralph Dye, put it best, "I don't know much about who made them, or where they came from, or even when they were made; they're just so bea utiful - I love to collect and admire them." Ralph is, however, expected at the head of the line to buy this book, and we know he will be delighted with every detail of discovery. Importantly, this book can prevent both the novice and advanced collector from making purchasing errors, and the avoidance of only one such error can easily pay for the book. This book should also add substantial texture and depth to ceramic bank collecting, thus adding im measurably to our general collecting pleasure. In addition, it fi lls the human need to know.
